Slippy Toad from Star Fox 64
This toad pilot and mechanical genius is a valued member of the Star Fox team. That is, until he opens his mouth, engages in combat, or pretty much does anything.

Why he annoyed us:
You'd think that a toad flying a jet fighter in space would be nothing short of awesome. You'd be wrong. During every mission, Slippy quickly makes himself the most hated member of the Star Fox team by using his high-pitched voice to shout random, useless advice. During combat, his idea of dogfighting seems to be getting trapped by the enemy and bugging Fox to save him.

We're assured during the game that his mechanical expertise makes him invaluable, which must be the only reason he isn't blown out of the sky by friendly fire five seconds after takeoff.
I can't count the number of times I had to go and save his worthless butt. Then he'd die anyway and screw up my game.

Natalya from Goldeneye
James Bond must protect this computer programmer who once worked on the deadly GoldenEye satellite that has been hijacked by terrorists. Her expertise was essential in stopping it from attacking London, which means every bad guy in the game is going to try to shoot her while you, as Bond, must throw yourself in front of their bullets.

Why she annoyed us:
"Ok Natalya, here's the deal. I'll kill all the bad guys and complete the mission objectives. All you have to do is not die and under no circumstances should you step in front of me while I'm shooting. If you get the urge to fire your revolver or type on a keyboard with closed-fists, go right ahead. Just don't die. Think you can handle that?"

No she can't. If James Bond is licensed to kill, Natalya must be licensed to die. She, like the aforementioned Ashley Graham, was born with a rare genetic disorder that disables her instinct for self-preservation.

Natalya also reinforces a double-standard. It's ok for her to ruin James Bond's missions by dying unexpectedly, or bitch at him for icing Boris, her scumbag computer programmer friend. But should we suddenly feel the need to turn on her and unload two RCP-90 clips into her skull, it's considered "wrong" and "misogynist" and "pathological".
lol at the close fist typing, and yep I have unloaded 2 RCP-90 clips into her as well...

Navi from Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
In Ocarina of Time, Navi is Link's fairy companion on his quest to save Hyrule. She shows how much she cares for Link by constantly pestering him like a nagging, clingy spouse.

Why she annoyed us:
Anyone who has ever played this game should remember constantly hearing a tiny little voice saying:

"Hey!...Hey!...Listen!...Hey!...Watch out!...Hey!..."

STFU! I'm trying to have an adventure here. God damn.
lol at the last line.
